Step by Step

With these tickets to the Palace and Archaeological Site of Knossos in Crete you can explore one of the ancient wonders of the area on your own. It seems that Knossos dates back to the Neolithic period and that the city may have been the largest in Europe during the Bronze Age.

As your visit progresses, you will realise that the role of Knossos in the development of early civilisations should not be underestimated. This is the home of the Minotaur and where legends were created.

Although the Minoan civilisation lasted almost two thousand years, it is the story of the Minotaur's labyrinth that has really stayed in our memory. Take the opportunity to relive all the events that took place there, both real and invented.

Also, inside the reconstructed palace you will be able to see the intact throne of King Minos, the first king of Crete. It will be the perfect opportunity to walk among 9,000-year-old ruins that show what was the centre of Greek civilisation in the Bronze Age.

So that you don't have to worry about anything, tickets include skip-the-line access. You will be able to start your visit directly upon arrival, without having to wait.
